So one day, I was left at my friend's house without my normal, Sidekick Charger.
My friend had an HTC Sense charger and it seemed to fit my Sidekick, and without thinking twice, I used it for the night.
My phone charged ti 100% and I unplugged it and used it throughout the next day.
Guys my samsung charger is broken. I asked in a shop for new charger but its very costly.
I have had problems with my charger for my phone, specifically the cable. It is at the point where it won't work anymore or barely so I tried buying and while waiting for a good item I tried another solution. I still have my charger from my old phone, but it was a LG phone. Seeing as my phone is HTC and the charger is LG (and it fits) I was wondering if it was a good idea, or will it cause damage?
Hi
While I'm driving I'm using Waze for navigation, and the device is also connected to my in car multimedia unit via BT as a phone.
I'm connecting the device to the car charger, and getting the charging icons, so it is actually charging the device.
BUT... it seems that the charging is too slow. The percentages of the battery is going down, instead of going up.
I purchased an extended battery, a Motorola branded BP7X for a Droid 2 phone. It's rated at 3.7 volts/1820 mAh. I tested it with a volt-ohm meter and got a reading of 4.2 volts.
When I install the battery in the phone and connect the charger (phone is off), the charging graphic shows the battery is fully charged.
My phone has the original battery, in good condition, have phone 1 year & 4 months.
This is the Epic 4G slide, Gingerbread, non rooted.
I noticed at work last night-forgot my charger at work, so used an extra one in the meantime the day before. The battery did die but was able to get it on the spare charger until I could get my original cord.
Don't know what happens last night but now Battery is not charging not even through charger or USB cable, plus Windows is unable to recognise the device when USB is connected. It is showing 100 percent battery all the time(using GO Power Master) plus it shows common charging at regular intervals even when nothing is connected to phone. The only way to charge the phone is to charge it offline.
OK I've had my nexus a year ago last Xmas. Been a pretty damn good phone. But yesterday it stopped charging. I would plug it in and.... nothing. Tried several chargers to no avail. I left it on the charger over night and it charged it 40% in 9 he's.
We have all heard of battery saving techniques to get our phones to last the entire day, but my question is in regards to charging strategy...
More specifically, is there a 'best practice' for charging your battery?
Is it best to let it get down real low before putting it on the charger? If so, is it best to leave it on the charger until it fully charges?
